[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For Jeff Cup showcase, I predict a few nominal upsets and/or scorelines being closer than they would be in a tournament format.  ECNL and GA clubs in older age brackets will use games as opportunity for non-committed players to get meaningful minutes and game footage, playing starters much less than normal.  As it should be.

And overuse injuries, muscle pulls, and hopefully not much more, because older kids can't and shouldn't play so many games in so few days.

Also as predictable is out-state and lesser known clubs hanging in close games, oblivious to the fact they're not playing against a team earnestly trying to beat them with their best players.  All of which will lead to the inevitable ECNLsucks/GAsucks/WhateverleagueSucks/we'retoogoodforourbracket banter here from parents denigrating the other guy's club because, you know, showcase results are intended for that.

Take those predictions to the bank. [/quote]

So you're suggesting the #1 girls showcase in the USA is going to be played by hopefuls and second stringers.  Okay then... what IS the tournament/showcase where "all the kids play their hardest".  To suggest this is a limp in showcase is either setting yourself up for gratification when the games are close (by chance) or you're DD is in a hellish bracket by which you're not looking forward to.  There is literally no bigger platform east of the Mississippi that has more clout.  No where else will you get GA/ECNL to play en masse like this.  ENCL playoffs don't count as they are built in league play and no GA opponents.  Seriously, name this magical place where girls only play hard for that one.[/quote]
